## Summary

The University of Bedfordshire is seeking to renew its license for 250 concurrent users of VMware Horizon 8 standard/Modern License equivalent. This procurement process falls under the "services" category within the software management industry, with an estimated contract value ranging between £45,000 and £60,000 GBP. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the deadline for tender submissions is set for 17 September 2024 at 12:00 PM BST. The subsequent contract period will commence on 22 September 2024 and conclude on 23 September 2027.
